Poll - What is your favorite mission tree? Why?

[Hannibal_theCannibal]

As the title reads, what is your favorite mission tree? It could be any nation and for any reason. I'm curious what others might think and it's helpful to see how the community feels.

I'll start, I think my favorite mission might be "A New Philhellenic Policy" for Thrace. I love that the Mission touches many different aspects of the game: deification of the founder, managing the loyalty of clients, stealing clients from a rival diplomatically, bits of conquest in different parts of the map, tasks towards fostering stability and consolidation. I think the variety of scope is really appealing to me, rather than just "conquer this, build that" missions.

Agreed, the Thracian missions in general and the Philhellenic Policy one especially are really good.

Hellenistic Empire, because I like it when my primary culture shares name with its culture group. Proceed to assimilate the virgin Hellenistic cultures into my chad Hellenistic culture. Besides, no forced subject states in mission, just more bonus for my mega-empire blob.

I do not like Basilike Eirene wiping my unique mission rewards through civil war though, might just mod that shit out.

I like the tree I am modding the most!

The Seleukid Babylon tree is really good. Added some religion and culture flavor that is both historical and guides you to utilized the religion, culture, and govt office mechanics of the game that are otherwise passed over in the background.

I'm a big fan of this one too except for the 90% pops in Mesopotamia must be integrated cultures. That one requires either integrating two cultures or else moving a ton of pops around, which feels very gamey.

Otherwise, it's a great tree.

Founding a philosophy school in the Hellenistic Empire tree is also amazing. Screenshots in this post.
